Today was my, "scrub down the inside glass" day. I went about my business. About 20 minutes after I was done, I walked by my tank and the fish were all on the bottom of the tank in clear distress. Upon further investigation my CB angel and one of my clowns was dead. I went into panic mode. And then I realized I had drenched my hands in hand sanitizer about five minutes before I stuck them in the tank. I totally forgot to wash them off.
Well I immediately dosed prime and then emptied 50% of the tank. Increase the airflow into the tank. THANKFULLY within ten minutes of changing the water, everybody seemed back to themselves.
Three hours later and it's like nothing happened. I loved my CB - he was my first "real" fish after my two clowns. #crushed #learnedmylesson
So, remember to always rinse your hands and arms before sticking them in the tank!
